Any nonconforming building or structure damaged more than fifty percent (50%) of its then-assessed valuation, exclusive of foundations, shall not be restored or reconstructed, used or occupied as a nonconforming use and shall be in conformance with the provisions of this Code. If such damage amounts to fifty percent (50%) or less of the assessed valuation, the nonconforming building or structure may be restored, provided such restoration is completed within twelve (12) months from the time of damage.
